Roasted Peaches with Sugared Walnuts

Something about the words 'Sugared Walnuts' had me hooked as soon as I spotted this recipe. I came across it on Oprah's website (not sure how I ended up there), but it's super easy and quick (and delicious). I figured – if it's good enough for Queen Oprah....
You will need:
1 cup walnuts
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
5 tablespoons brown sugar
6 peaches, halved
1/2 cup thick cream
Method:
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a tray with baking paper, set aside. In a bowl, toss walnuts with 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Spread walnuts on to tray. Roast 5 minutes; turn and continue roasting until browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove from tray. Place peaches on same tray; brush tops with remaining 2 tablespoons butter and sprinkle with brown sugar. Roast until sugar is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Place 2 peach halves in a bowl, top with cream and the toasted sugared walnuts. Serves 6.
